Nice comparison of Ringo and Node

In the spirit of AppJet, Erbix is a serverjs app engine web IDE. Erbix allows you to write and deploy CommonJS modules in a sandboxed hosted soft-coding environment.

And get this: Erbix is itself an Erbix app! Now that's cool!

In principal, Erbix claims to follow a "no vendor lock-in" approach. Eventually, CommonJS may indeed become an eco-system that will deliver on that promise. If you want to dabble with the interoperability of running CommonJS inside and outside of Erbix, the way to come as close as possible of rolling your own self-hosted setup would be to take
RingoJS for a Ride.

The patents best example
of why the invention is necessary describes a webcam of a watering hole in Africa. There would be many periods during which nothing of particular interest (e.g., no animals, etc.) would be happening at the watering hole. Sometimes, though, there would be something awesome, like lions, and people would want to know. Thats where the invention comes in. It would tell you the animals are there (hopefully with a helpful alert like Oh my God! Lions!).

"Agreed, but, like always, change never comes from market leaders (why would they take the risks?). So we need all "smaller" players to adopt these open protocols to push the bigger ones toward it. AOL wasn't really pushing toward interoperable email networks! Until everyone else was doing so."
